Minecraft Schematic Viewer for VS Code

Visual Studio Code extension previews Minecraft schematic files directly in an editor tab.

Currently supported formats:

  • .litematic
  • .schem
  • .nbt
  • .mcstructure
  • Building Gadgets .json

Demo

Installation

Get it by simply searching Minecraft Schematic Viewer in your extensions tab, or find it at VS Code Marketplace and Open VSX. You can also download the latest release from the Github Releases Page, drag and drop the .vsix file into your VS Code extensions tab.

Usage

Open a supported schematic file in VS Code, and the extension will preview it in a new tab.

  • .litematic, .schem, .nbt, and .mcstructure open directly with the viewer.
  • Building Gadgets .json files are available through Reopen With... / Open With... so the extension does not take over regular JSON editing.

Use your mouse to navigate the schematic, and use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out. Use WASD or arrow keys to pan the camera.

Development

Run this command from the extension project folder:

npm run build

This builds both the extension host bundle and the webview bundle into dist/.
